NBC Sports reports Miami Dolphins DE Emmanuel Ogbah (triceps) return to form would also be a welcome development in Miami. Ogbah had just one sack in 11 games before a torn triceps brought his year to an end. On Tuesday, Ogbah said that he’s gotten the green light for football activities and has his eye on a full recovery on the field as well. “They’re taking it easy on me during camp but I’ve been fully cleared and I am ready to go. . . . [The Dolphins] have taken care of me,” Ogbah said. “I’ve got to go out there and put some good juice on tape. Obviously I battled some injuries last year, but I’m ready to go this year. I’ve got to take care of my body better this year and just focus on the little things.”
